Is this an ADHD thing too? I thought this was an autism thing
Ahh, the symptoms pool overlap...
Nobody cares what you think about ADHD. bye.
There's shitty people in the fediverse like the rest of the world and we can't stop randos from voting. Rest assured we don't tolerate ableist idiots like the above comment and that poster has since been banned.
The funny thing is that ADHD people actually hate when people say that their ADHD is an superpower because it's a total bullshit that neurotypicals love to say.
What does even this joke mean?
Gotcha, I wasn't familiar with the term.
The only people who have ever told me I should treat being disabled like it gives me superpowers have been neurotypical and able bodied. We don't like it.
Gasp, some one is having fun and I'm not a part of it!?
How dare those disableds get to relate to each other!
Yeah, like I'm so glad I've wrecked friendships over not doing something I didn't know I was supposed to do and made absolutely no sense after I was told about it. Such a superpower.
Why tf everyone assumes that those things are "superpowers", wtf?
I never said any of that stuff. You're just making stuff up right now.
Changed my downvote to an upvote. English isn't my first language and I misunderstood your point.
Yup. Sure is great to constantly strain my marriage due to shit that is legitimately annoying and upsetting that I struggle to avoid doing.
It's a "a lot of things" thing. Generally, the taboo around such behavior is just a symptom of a lack of empathy.
Just about any person could go into a panic while in a state of stress and do something irrational, and just about everyone does at least a few times. In a shared moment of stress, you might see more empathy because "any of us could have panicked/froze/etc.," but if it's just you, "something's wrong with that person."
There's a lot of overlap, but it's an autistic thing. ADHD had no effect on social skills.
Uhhh I have ADHD it 100% impacts my social skills. There's a night and day difference between when I'm medicated and when I'm not.
